I don't believe there is any folder function so you'd need a script to recurse 
and build the tree. You might look at DFS-R as an alternative if you have 2003 
R2. It will limit bandwidth utilization and will handle deltas versus recopying 
the whole file.

Subject: Folder transfer over WAN via BITS???

Happy Friday Everyone,

I have been asked to transfer a folder from 1 Windows 2003 server to another 
Windows 2003 server over a WAN link. This will be done weekly. The client would 
like to use BITS and have the copy 'trickle' over a long period of time so as 
not to saturate the WAN link. The only Microsoft util I have found is 
BitsAdmin. It seems that you have to explicitly name each file you want copied. 
I need something that can do an entire folder.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mark
